Is goodluck Yoruba? Did Yoruba not vote for yaradua?

Did Yoruba not vote goodluck?

Yoruba also voted buhari.

Yoruba has been more diverse in their voting system.

Igbo vote in one direction. Infact the way Igbo still lament about yorubas not voting goodluck show their vote are not liberal .

Igbos consider manythings bro. Goodluck is a Niger delta man and Igbos will feel more sense of belonging in that camp.

Yorubas voted buhari out of sentiment that theyll take over.

No one is saint in this con3 , we're all greedy. Yoruba's are diverse in thinking and riligion yet we try as much to maintain unity.

Igbos and northerners has one method of doing things this has nothing to do with foresight Mr man.
I know sizable number of Yoruba's who said buhari is terrorist before 2015 election.

Igbos are not tolerant. Nigeria constitution is forcing igbos to appear tolerant.

When you have your con3 your structure and policy might be rigid.

After biafria war I read Igbo lost many properties in the south south but gained their properties in southwest back. Thats how diplomatic the Yoruba's are. If we dislike will show you political Care.

Besides alot of Yoruba Christian might stand to defend their igbo church members and neighbors and wives or husband.
Diversity still remain in southwest .

Despite having many popular general overseer in southwest , we still have sizable number of fetish traditionalist.

Igbo are not really diverse like you're trying hard to prove.

Infact I have cautioned pastors , friends and a lot of Igbo's with their choice of word when referring to Islam. I'm not Muslim but my lovely cousins are Muslims so I don't like derogatory statement about Islam .

Well, I have already proven to you that Igbos vote with their heads. I have already shown you instances where Igbos voted for muslims, in spite of the fact that Igbos are not muslims.

Another point I have made is that Buhari has shown himself to be the most incompetent president ever in the history of Nigeria, and Igbos did not vote for him.
We had the option of voting for him in 2003 and 2007 when he had Igbo running mates, but we buried that primordial instinct of voting for ones own, just because of getting the presidency in the folowing dispensation. Thus the Igbos saved Nigeria from Buhari in both 2003 and 2007.

Immediately Buhari presented the Yorubas with the same opportunity in 2015, they fell for it hook line and sinker. Today the country is in the worst shape it has ever been because of that lack of foresight from the Yorubas, preferring to play the ethnic card, and rid the country of a president that was much much better than Buhari, all because of their inordinate ambition to wickedly grab the 2023 presidential chance meant for Igbos, simply to continue with the gross marginalisation of Igbos that have gone on for many decades.

The price that Yorubas are paying for their collusion in the marginalisation of Igbos is that Fulanis are now in Yoruba forests, and some Yorubas are now refugees in Benin republic. Meanwhile your political creme de la creme are still plotting with Fulanis to deny the Igbos their chance in 2023.

We are watching. Anyway the IPOB and MASSOB groups are now hellbent on ensuring that Biafra comes, so that we don't have to be in the same country with such wicked and unfeeling people.

That a lame point bro. Everyone voted yaradua , Igbo voted atiku because of peter obi and Yoruba voted buhari because of osibanjo

Your logic is super lame.

You claimed everyone voted for Yaradua. Did Igbos also vote for Yaradua? Who did Yaradua run against? And why did Igbos not vote for the person that ran against Yaradua.

The point is that Yaradua ran against the same Buhari, and Igbos did not vote for Buhari. They chose Yaradua. Was Yaradua's running mate an Igbo man? The answer is NO.

In 2015, the north, a good chunk of the middle belt and Yorubas voted for Buhari. Yet Igbos did not vote for Buhari. Can't you see a pattern developing? Igbos have always known that Buhari is bad market. We see things way before other Nigerians see it.

In 2019 Buhari ran again, and yet Igbos did not vote for him. Igbos opted for Atiku. It had nothing to do with his running mate, otherwise Igbos wouldn't have voted for Yaradua because he didn't have an Igbo running mate.

In 2003 and 2007, Buhari ran with two prominent Igbo running mates, yet Igbos did not vote for him. So stop giving that running mate excuse. It lacks merit

tollyboy5:
You don't need to pick some political point to prove or convince us.

Igbo's dislike Islam. I've never been to Igbo land but I could tell from Lagos here.
Ive worked in Alaba and lived with Igbo for years , I have Igbo friends.
Yorubas are tolerant because part of their family are Muslim and some Christian so family can't go against themselves.

Yet Igbos still voted for Yaradua and Atiku. Two Fulanis known for not being Christians.

Igbos don't hate anybody. They hate terrorism though. Unfortunately, every terrorist attack in Nigeria has been carried out by muslims.

Buhari's presidency has now done a huge harm to the islam brand. With all the killings and rapes going on in the forests of Nigeria.
But as I wrote initially, they still voted for Yaradua and Atiku.

lastempero:
Please ikwerres are not igbos as they said and should stop ropping them in, we dont need them for anything. How many ikwerres should be the ones identifying with us and not the other way round. They are poor too so i can't see what we stand to benefit from them.

Both ONELGA and Oyigbo LGAs are not Ikwerre LGAs.

The Ikwerre LGAs are PHALGA, Obio-Akpo, Ikwerre and Emohua.

Kestolove:
chairman stop consoling ursef by bringing in south south into this matter, northerners have nothing to loose in south east period

Stop consoling yourself by bringing in northerners. Please stick with just Fulani. Fulanis have a lot to loose. I can guarantee you that. Fellow northerners don't even want to deal with Fulanis.

Now Igbos have huge territories in the SS.
The two most oil-productive LGAs in the Nigeria are Igbo-speaking namely Oyigbo LGA and ONELGA, both in Rivers state. So Igbos dey kamkpe in the SS.

SE also has the largest gas reserves in Nigeria. Gas will become more and more significant as the years go by, so Igbos are very critical to your lives.

Please stick with just Fulani. Don't bring in northerners. There are Igbo northerners in Benue and they have nothing against the SE. I am sure Tiv, Idoma, southern Kaduna and other northern minorities are totally against you.

Kestolove:
which of the south Oga, south south or south east?

Both in SE and SS as we have indigenous Igbos in both.

The other minorities are also not too keen on Fulani terroristic tendencies and farmland occupation, so they will help do the needful when the time comes.

Kinqramon:
I bet most of y'all ranting "bring it on" on social media cant assemble automatic weapon. you here giving innocent people ginger to go and sign their death wish. this war wey you they look for, if e happen you fit stand? if you get grandpa wey dun live for century go ask am question make he brief you. war is never a solution.

Igbos alone fought the whole of Nigeria, and if not for foreign support , Igbos would have won that war.

Today most of Nigeria will not join the Fulani in fighting Igbos.
To make matters worse, some of those countries won't be swift in supporting Fulani terrorism.

Bring it on

Kestolove:
I pity igbos....90% of Igbo investment are in the north, less than 10% of hausa/fulani investment are in the south east....let's see the big loosers bring it on

But 90% of northern oil and gas investments are in the south. And oil is a major money spinner for the north. Let's see the big loosers. Bring it on

PissfulProtester:
hehehehe..

Fulani will never let it go..Never!

They will definitely revenge even if it will take a hundred years

My brothers from that zone need to be extremely careful

Stop advising us. We don't need your pity.

As they have made this threat, Igbo groups may not even need to wait for them to carry out the threat before they retaliate. Don't be surprised if preemptive strikes start.

OK, maybe you think Igbos forget also. Iyasikwa

Stories.

Igbos are something else.

It's clear the killings were carried out by Fulani terrorists.

But Fulanis will make the greatest mistake of their lives to go and carry out any killings in Anambra state, as things stand.

Any such actions will portend an unimaginable danger for the Fulani species.

Nnamdi Kanu has already declared that Ikonso will be buried with 2,000 heads.

Nnamdi Kanu has to extend these heads to also cover the leaders of MACBAN. Their heads should also qualify in the count.

If they want madness, Igbos will give them madness times 100

sarrki:
Lol

It’s ESN owned by ipobians that are killing

You have no single proof. But Igbariam people took a video of Fulanis walking upandan their community, looking for who to kill.

I am sure the same set of Fulani terrorists killed their fellow Fulanis, obviously on the orders of the chief terrorist in Aso rock, with Isa Pantami, the Alqaeda terrorist enabler.

People should tell these Fulani terrorists to stop killing people.

Today they kill non-Fulanis. Tomorrow they kill fellow Fulanis.
All because the UK is considering granting IPOP and MASSOB asylum. Something that both organisations have rejected

Fulanis should end this cycle of massacring people

So the Fulani terrorist federal government is now writing to HIV and AIDS and WHY and GCE and WAEC

Uwa nkea self

UnknownGunMan:
One by one, they will all go down. He who bargains must pay

Nwokem that's one nice-looking gun in your picture section.

Please ensure that's the last thing certain criminals and terrorists see before they see the Lord for judgement.

Igbochief001:
Which innocent citizens have been killed ?

You mocked ESN when the air strike hit orlu

What did you expect ? Make army carry out another airstrike na ...are they tired ?

You guys have no idea how brutal Igbos can be ...you guys just have absolutely no idea

Let us hope the mangled bodies of those unfortunate Fulanis in Igbariam will help convince them that Igbos can be as depraved as they wanna be.

It's just that Igbos have so much respect for life, but don't try them.

TonyeBarcanista:
There is nothing like Unknown gunmen... The gunmen are known and are politically sponsored. Irrespective of whoever they are or their motive, Rivers state will not accommodate them.

At least Wike didn't mention IPOB this time around. Fear don catch him.

Anyway, let's keep an eye on Rivers state over the next few days to know whether this Unknown gunmen will ignore Some and strike. If they strike, I will forever see Wike as just blowing hot air.

Also if they strike, it will mean that those UGM are from Rivers state, hence a Biafran territory.

musa234:
Buhari scammed everybody ..The thing is no matter how bad a politician is, he will still have people singing him praises because of personal gains.. So do not look at what paid urchins type on social media, they all know the truth, but because they are being paid by this government, they must always exonerate the government from been a huge failure.

Buhari couldn't scam Igbos

Igbochief001:
So those guns , cars and everything Boko boys capture don't have tracker in them to track their location ?

When uneducated north want to rule and lead everyone this is what you get

.

They have trackers. It is just an arrangee capture.

Even attack helicopters and fighter jets can spot them from a mile away and destroy them, but it is an arrangement with the Fulani government, just to ensure BOko Haram get those equipment

helinues:
@ emboldened is not just stale but dumb.. No offense.

What have your state governors, senators, reps, state assemblies members being doing in terms of developing the region?

Do you people really have fair credible people to represent you, Aba city with population of 1 million plus recorded less than 20k votes for Reps bye election...

How would such kind of person cares about the rest that did not vote for him or participate in the the voting processing..

You guys should stop this blaming game cos it's not helping you at all

What about the tax revenue that comes from Aba? Is it not greater than what comes from Sokoto or Daura.
Don't blame Igbos for now having confidence in the electoral process. INEC and judiciary is being controlled by Buhari, so Igbos may not want to take part in the election charade

Since Buhari took over, how many Igbos have been made heads of any security agency. Just name one SEner that has headed any security arm since Buhari took over. SS people have had at least two of such. SW people have had at least two of such. SE people have had none. And you want them to feel a part of the nation.

SE people have more gas reserves than any other region. Has anyone from the SE ever headed NNPC or any of the major arms of the petroleum industry since Buhari took over?

Fulani herdsmen terrorists have been killing and maiming indigenous people throughout the length? and breadth of Nigeria. Did you see Buhari proscribing them or declaring them terrorists? But he declared a banner-waving organisation mainly because the SE is one of the major bases of the organisation.

I don't even want to talk about other issues.
Buhari has asked for the non-cooperation of Ndigbo, and he is getting it. He mistook this generation for cowards, totally ignoring the fact that no one can get madder than Igbos, if the chips are down. Fulani craze no go measure up with Igbo craze when im start.
gbos have not even started.
Buhari is only just feeling IPOB and ESN on the one side; and UGM from the otherside.
When all Igbos get involved, Buhari and his terrorist allies will not even have a chance.
1.There are Igbos who want separation from Nigeria - IPOB, MASSOB (militancy, military-age individuals)
2.There are Igbos that want restructuring - business class and some politicians (financial resources)
3.There are Igbos that want presidency - political class. (financial resources and worldwide political and diplomatic connections)

So far Buhari is only feeling the sting of IPOB. The other two classes of Igbos have not joined.
That is why IPOB is not enthusiastic about an Igbo emerging as the president in 2023, because they want the political class and the business class to join up with the agitation and bring to bear, their own immense resources.

Buhari also forgot that Igbos are a majority group, and can make things happen.

Let him not even count on southern minorities. They all want to run away with their resources and enjoy it alone, and they know that the Igbo struggle of the moment will help them in achieving that

helinues:
Buhari did not only fail SE but Nigeria in general, apart from Norther region why are SW and SS not behaving like ESN and Ipobs?

Please be sincere with your response

While Igbos have huge respect for life, they are extremely aggressive towards oppressors. In Haiti up till today, they pay respect to their Igbo ancestor section for being the spiritual engine room that was instrumental in their war of independence against France. IGBO GRAMOUN, IBOLELE.

Buhari chose to marginalise Igbos more than any southern group so the response from Igbos should not be surprising, coming from an aggressive people.

It is mainly Igbo protests that he repeated ordered his military goons to mow down with automatic rifles.

By the way the aggression in SS is increasing by the day also, and the Fulani major allies in the south are gradually seeking self determination. That shows there is something devilish with Buhari's administration

helinues:
You have been having conflicting minds lately...

How have you been coping ?

My very good friend. So u never go Canada? Na wetin you dey wait for?

On a more serious note, the Buhari administration is causing all these problems. His highhandedness in dealing with issues that concern Igbos have made IPOB and ESN more hostile towards him and the instruments of government authority.

He failed to realise that this is a new generation of Igbos who did not see the previous war, and are very very willing to go to war to end their miserable existence in Nigeria

helinues:
ESN said they don't want police and army again in SE....

Police and army and Hope Uzodinma say they don't ESN in the SE.

So Uzodinma who is the chief security officer of the state must provide security. He is responsible for the insecurity

supportnija:
Op, it is not fear, they don't the enemy they are fighting, police and army wear uniform , enemy don't wear, enemy don't know the rule of engagement but police and soldier know, enemy don't have office but they have office, they are not afraid.

Their rules of engagement include shooting torturing and killing unarmed banner waving protesters.

The evil they did is chasing them upandan

adadike:
what do you mean? I condemn the killings so what did I do wrong

You should also condemn the killings Fulani terrorists carried out there a few weeks ago

Another arrangee slaughter.

It is obvious the Fulani federal government of Nigeria will cook up anything just to rubbish IPOB's peaceful movement.
About a month ago, they also claimed that a group of Fulani kids were killed by IPOB. Their mistake with that story was that they alleged that the oldest of those kids was about 6 years old. So they left a 6 yr old kid in charge of younger kids. Anyway they abandoned that arrangee story. Now they have come up with this with a picture in tow, to convince the chicken-brained idiots that elected a terrorist.

Since the UK contemplated granting asylum status to IPOB and MASSOB, the Fulani-controlled DSS has been working overtime, cooking up stories and situations IPOB can be blamed for.

The asylum privilege is not even heavily sought after by IPOB and MASSOB.

I trust Emma Powerful to debunk this.

SaintBishop:
And we all going to enjoy when they give you guys the Oyigbo treatment just like Wike did.
How about that fake jew

Did you hear Wike blab now that Unknown gunmen gunned down and beheaded his Fulani soldiers yesterday.

His bulldog gra-gra has deserted him. Sh!t is getting real. IPOB now has a wing that is armed.

Go and try another Oyigbo and see.

Anyway, I hope your relatives that were killed in Odi have been buried by you, or their corpses still rotting away.

PHijo:
The Igbos think they decide but they don't decide!
If only one Ijaw man decides, an Ijaw man will be governor. We will allow you to keep up with the illusion.

We are happy with keeping up the illusion forever

Mind you, Igboids will only allow you a maximum of 8 years, after which it reverts back to Igboids for another 20 year stay. Ighotago

PHijo:
It is uninteresting and I won't tell you why Ijaw people are no eager on the governorship.

They are eager. In fact, they have screaming on the top of their voice to be allowed to have a look-in.
Igboids may allow them this time around though. It's been 21 years, so Igboids will allow Ogoni or Ojoids a chance to govern.

I think Ogoni/Eleme people have the best case though. They have never governed Rivers state. In fact Ogonis have never ever produced any governor.

StaffofOrayan:
Oduduwa nation would escape this doom from barbarians from futa jalon,
You think you are special and it won't get to you?
When it finally does, as a Buharideen, they would tell your parents to stop wailing

How can you escape them when you keep voting terrorists in?

buckeyemedia:
Ok a proscribed Criminal organization was minding its business then the Federal Government came & disturbed them? I’m sorry for you confused ipob sympathizers.

ESN is not proscribed.

So the Nigerian security forces started attacking ESN. And btw ESN has not started retaliating. UGM has been doing the honours
